1,000th Ferrari delivered to Hong Kong was given quite an entrance
The boost in China?s economy has mean that there has been a 20% increase in Ferrari sales there.
Mr Didier Li looks pleased to be receiving his 612 Scaglietti in such a special presentation and hopefully Ferrari were kind enough to help him offload the car from the Chinese Junk boat.
